Aureolin Happiness
A/N: Hello guys! Welcome to the 4th chapter in Those Eyes, all warnings in chapter 1 still apply. Please enjoy~!
There's this feeling that I get, and I can't ignore it. The feeling where you know things aren't certain. Like that life could just change in an instant. And the more I think about it, the worse I feel. The way I see it, is like how I could step outside right now, and grab some lady walking past and hold her as a hostage to… Say, let me become Hokage or something. I wouldn't ever do that, not even in my dreams. But the fact that I can do something that could totally change my life forever, forever… It scares me… So many times a day, I witness many people regretting their decisions, or bad things happen to them. I cant help but wonder if there is such a thing like 'Karma' the whole 'what goes around comes around' and the 'you get what you deserve' or 'you get what you dish out'. And if there is ever such a thing, I wonder if my current decisions are right… Will they end up in bad Karma? But with that aside, I still ponder about how easy it is to change my life in an instant. My insides whirl and I feel like I'm toppling off a tower, I get so queasy.
Naruto sat leaning against the wall on his soft bed. He loved the comfort of the squishy mattress under his tired legs, the feeling of a warm blanket protecting him. Silent thoughts replayed in his mind. The idea of ruining his life haunted him. What if I can't make things right with him? Sasuke…
A familiar feeling crept into Naruto's abdomen. He brought his legs up to his chest and held them close.
I can't bear to lose him. Lose him forever.
The blonde scrunched his eyes shut the cringing thought.
I can't, I can't live with that.
Flickers of memories flood his brain.
"I love…"
What do I love? He asked himself.
I love…
The way his dark raven bangs fall, so perfectly.
I love…
His flawless porcelain skin, compared to my scarred darker skin.
I love his calculated actions. Always planned, no wasted movements.
Just the way he does things, the way he speaks.
That deep dark voice sends tremors down my spine, little nerves shivering making my hair stand at every word he says.
I love his personality. So in control. I feel so immature around him, always wanting to be more like Sasuke. My role model in some ways.
The thing I love the most, are…
His eyes.
Always screaming one emotion. Whether it is fury, happiness, 'troublesome', or anything.
Naruto was always sucked in.
The pooling darkness of Sasuke's eyes were black holes, while still being the intriguing nebulae.
Once sucked in, he could never get back out. Not that he wanted to of course. No sane person would deny the opportunity to stare into the ravens eyes. Analyse all the small specks, like trillions of fragmented crystal aurora borealis, ever changing, ever moving.
Those eyes. His eyes.
I could stare into them for ever. Just me and him. Together.
Naruto's eyelids flitted down, collected drowsiness came down upon the boy. He lay down and rested his head on his comforting pillow. Slowly, Naruto began to slip from reality. He felt like sinking into darkness. Sinking, sinking until he was in his other world. Filled with uncontrolled dreams. All his pure wants and thoughts. One teenager occupied Naruto's mind tonight. Uncontrolled wants.
I feel a warmth on my right hand. So comforting. I open my eyes and notice a pale hand, fingers intertwined with my own. My eyes trailed up a familiar body to find a beautiful face smiling back at me. My heart. I can hear it everywhere. A few flittered beats thud, I can feel a reservoir of insane aureolin happiness in me. Almost tipping.
"Hey, Naruto… Scaredy cat…" I feel the pressure almost breaking.
Sun rays splay all around us, glinting off his ceramic skin. So breathtaking.
"Why can't is always be like this Naruto? I… I need… You…" Literally breathtaking. Bright lights filled my dream world as my world came to a stop.
Naruto awoke with a deep sigh, his dreams (especially the amazing ones) always had to stop so fast. Sending him back to the reality of his living world.
[Sasuke]
The raven pressed his palms against the cold stone walls as he glared at Madara.
Sasuke was deep in thought, partially bothered by his rage at the older man.
"It's now or never Sasuke. Are you coming with me? Or returning to those pathetic little critters you call friends."
A low growl sounded from Sasuke.
"They are anything but pathetic." Sasuke knew this was wrong, even still, he looked away and broke eye contact. "They aren't my friends anyways."
"Sure, say what you want. But it all boils down to your decision. The decision that you will make now." Madara's voice was final.
Sasuke drew in a deep silent breath, cleared his mind and thought.
If leave Madara, and return to Konoha. What will happen? Madara will definitely come attack. Definitely target Naruto. No doubt about it, especially if he thinks me (the betrayer) holds him so high. All the more reason to hurt him. And I cant possible let that happen right? Black eyebrows furrowed at a mind block.
"How about I give you ten minutes to finish your decision making. When I come back, you are replying me."
With that, the older man swiftly left the room.
Sasuke released a breath he didn't knew he was holding.
If I go with Madara, I will have to attack Konoha myself. Naruto will hate me, he will have to fight me. But I can go easy. I could lose my life. Unless I go all out. Fight to the death. Ugh, I disgust myself. Just the thought of killing him makes me sick. Like extinguishing my sun. The only light I have in me. The only thing keeping me from the extremes of insanity. I can't think. I can't think! Hold which one higher?
My clan with power and Madara, or Naruto? Naruto, Naruto… but, how? So many pros and cons, which path to take?
Teetering on a seesaw don't know which way to go, ultimate choice leads down to right now. But both choices will come to a black end. 100%.
The door opens, so soon already? Has it been ten minutes?
"Times up Sasuke, made your choice?"
The raven looks up to the man, and draws in a slow breath.
I'm going to regret this.
"I'm going with you. I will kill Naruto."
"Good choice."
